No, that message was about the incoming scenario. I am new to Courier, it may be the case that Courier always throws 550 before accepting mail into the queue, so it would be the default behavior as described in prior email. If a message with invalid sender and recipient addresses is given to a server which throws 550, then the doublebounce is generated on the sending server. If it's accepted into the queue, then a bounce and a subsequent double bounce is going to be on the receiving server. Which may or may not be what you want. Personally, I gave up on double bounces, as most of them are SPAM, and there are too many of them to watch over. ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
